follw – Just Random Thoughts

We all know this cliché line ‘Persistence is the key to the success’ but if this is ‘the key’ then why successful people are less? Many people likes to read motivational books, leadership books (I also like to read, don’t mind me) but everyone is not a leader or a motivational speaker or a successful person! My teachers, college professors, some friends and some narcissist people in my life told me about success, how it is important to us and Blah! Blah! But what I observed, those people are still not successful in their life. They are struggling just like me or maybe less than me. Don’t worry this is not motivational post! These are my rational and logical (at least to me) thoughts.

So back to our Persistence, what we, I mean we all lack to achieve success, because of abandoning things in middle. Things mean it can be a habit, a new course, your business, your start-up, your execution of plans, it could be anything. We all start off quite well then we continue it also very well but where we get fooked (didn’t want use curse) up? We gave up in the middle! But why we gave up? Because loss of faith in our work and ourselves.

Even if we try to be persistent we fail. And that failing is more dangerous than failing completely. We abandon our ideas and creativity with it! A person who believed and has faith in him/her survives! Well now that was sad story isn’t it? (Don’t worry! I am also one of the half fellers!)

Now we will see the bright side (obviously! Not above paragraph). The bright side, standing up from that half failing is pretty easy! Just you should have that will to do. No one said that you can’t be persistent after you failed to be one. So take advantage of it and keep trying to be persistent. Certainly, one day you’ll achieve that. And after this continuation cycle will run in speed then voila! There is no speed breaker for your success (At least not from your side) (and I can’t guarantee future obstacles too).

The international bestseller book of author Napoleon Hill ‘Think and Grow Rich’ has contains an entire chapter for this ‘Persistence’. Napoleon Hill has given steps for becoming rich or you can say the qualities one should posses for being successful. I would like to quote one paragraph of this chapter which really made me move my butt and do something. (I guess this will also help you to move your butt).

“How to ‘snap out’ of mental inertia”

“You may find it necessary to “snap out of” your mental inertia (a tendency to do nothing or to remain unchanged) through a similar procedure, moving slowly at first, then increasing your speed, until you gain complete control over your will. Be persistent no matter what how slowly you may, at first, have to move. With persistence will come success.”
